Arteries

Capillaries are the microscopic blood vessels that connect small arteries to small veins. Blood exchange takes place in capillaries.

A pair of internal illiac arteries provides blood to urinary bladder.

arteries carry blood away from the heart toward the organs which end in terminal branches called capillaries.

Arteries have to stretch in response to the force of the blood being pumped from the heart. If they didn't the amount of pressure would be higher. It could cause a leak or rupture in the brain. The pressure is what is measured and called BP.

Blood flows from the heart and aorta into large vessels called arteries, these arteries decrease in size as they move into tissues and are then called arterioles with just a few layers of cells. Arterioles then become capillaries that have a single cell layer. Capillaries then empty into venules, which then enter veins and return blood back to the heart to start the process over again!

Answer 5 year survival rate is 89.3% with CABG then PTCA. Please keep in mind that a person with this condition should work closely with their Cardiologist and family doctor. Don't always believe in percentages or that 5 year survival rate as patients astound specialists all the time with a much longer survival rate.

Temporal artery has twocomponents. One is a superficial temporal artery is a terminal branch of external carotid. It divides into two parts and it's pulsations can be felt on Temporal bone above the Zygomatic arch.. It divides into anterior and posterior branches. They supply the temple and scalp. Anterior branch anastomoses with the supra-orbital branch of ophthalmic artery, which is a branch of Internal carotid. It also gives the transverse facial branchsupplying the face. Deep temporal is a branch of second part of maxillary artery. It supply the temporal muscle, a muscle of mastication.

Arteries are made of 3 distinct layers. A intimia, media and adventitia layer. The media layer is the one that contains all the muscular fibres as well as elastin.

In elastic arteries the media is made from a lot of elastin and not much smooth muscle. These are generally found near the heart (such as ascending aorta) because they need to be able to expand with the large pressure being pumped from the LV. Muscular arteries however have a lot of smooth muscle and not much elastin. These are found away from the heart in areas such as limbs.

Kind of. Arteries carry blood away from the heart to the body where the oxygen is used up, and then the deoxygenated blood is transported through capillaries to the veins, through which it is taken to the heart.

The process of recording a picture of an artery is called an arteriography. This is sometimes done in the medical testing process to locate weak places or blockages.

Arteries take blood from the heart to the body. Capillaries are tiny blood vessels that enable substance exchange between the blood and the body tissues. Veins carry blood back to the heart.

the left atrium and left ventricle are the heart chambers which pumps blood toward the artery. . . xD

The brachial artery is the continuation of the axillary artery. At the elbow it then divides into the radial and ulnar arteries.

The coronary artery fills during the diastolic phase of the cardiac cycle

Instead of your shot going to your heart and being spread throughout your entire body, the shot will get shoved into your hand and no where else.

You will feel a warm feeling flow up your arm to your hand. It feels quite pleasant at first...right before the feeling changes to agony! It will hurt incredibly, and relief will only come in the form of your swollen hand being too numb to feel any more pain.

If this is the first time you missed a vein and hit an artery, chances are you'll be fine. The swelling will go down in about an hour, and it will stop hurting. Hitting an artery will cause tissue damage and tissue death, but it will heal on its own as long as you're in relatively good health.

Don't panic, but if the pain or the swelling don't go away, seek immediate medical attention. People have lost limbs because of missed shots, and if there is any doubt about whether it's healing on its own (you'll know in the first 30-60 minutes) the sooner you can get to a doctor in the emergency room, the better.

The pressure is highest in the arteries and lowest in the veins.

I'm no anonomy expert, but the blood carried from the heart to the body is oxygen rich while the blood coming from the body has had it's oxygen absorbed so it goes through the heart to the lungs, where it gets oxygen, back to the heart and out to the body again.

vena cava -> right atrium-> through the right atrioventricular valve -> right ventricle -> through the Plumonary semi-lunar valve -> Plumonary trunk -> out the pulmonary artery -> lungs -> pulmonary veins -> left artrium -> through the left atrioventricular valve -> left ventricle -> through the aortic valve -> aorta -CB

Three arteries come off the Aortic Arch (from left to right) 1. Brachiocephalic Artery 2. Left Common Carotid Artery 3. Left Subclavian Artery. Then After the Aorta arches it then descends behind the heart and turns into the Descending Aorta which is then classified as either the Thoracic Descending Aorta or the Abdominal Descending Aorta.

Remember arteries come from the heart, and veins go from the organs back to the heart. Therefore, as the heart is the main pump, the arteries have the greatest pressure, so "the blood flow is more rapid in arteries."

In the human, the superficial temporal artery is the major artery of the head. You palpate, or feel for the pulse, of this artery about one inch in front of the ear. The easy way to find it is to put on a pair of glasses (sunglasses will do) and it is just under the earpiece just in front of the ear.

You could take it to mean a mildly twisted aorta.

Do more research though.
